I tried making popcorn at home in the Microwave today. I started with corn kernels (unpopped) and put them in a covered dish. Then I microwaved them for three minutes and to my amazement, most of them popped.
Seemed to turn out about the same as the commercial microwave popcorn.
Tom suggested that I should try adding melted sugar over them if I want a sugared popcorn (although he apparently hates that)
So I’m probably going to try that next time.
